Insurance: the sick need not apply
Insurance companies will insure you when you're healthy, but as soon as you get a costly illness, they will try to take away your insurance. This notorious and vile act is known as rescission.
A woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer had her insurance revoked when she scheduled an expensive double mastectomy.
The woman was willing to have her breasts removed in order to live. Instead she had her insurance revoked, and had to wait months to battle the insurance companies, and she knew the whole time that cancer grew inside her, and that the longer she waited, the less likely she was to live.
During a congressional hearing on the matter of rescission, the CEOs of three major insurance companies said that they would not change their policy of preying upon the weak.
Basically they only want to insure the healthy, and kick the sick off of their ledgers. This, of course, is the opposite of what insurance is. They are making money off of the healthy who do not use their product, and murdering the sick for profit.
If all else fails, hopefully the baneful policy of rescission will meet its end during this time of health care reform.
